Overall looks fine!

This variable name "module_params" is a bit confusing since loadable
kernel modules have params...

Can we think of another name and just put a comment that this
refers to the WiFi module building block?

Sometimes people talk about SoM:s (system-on-modules), so
maybe som_params or brcm_som_params?
